Tyrese Gibson admits that using mental health medications affected some of his previous online conduct. He explains that the announcement of his wife’s pregnancy was premature and false, and that he was not given $5 million by Will and Jada Pinkett-Smith.
Due to Tyrese’s reputation for disclosing private information online, people have laughed at rather than felt sympathy for him because of his candor regarding child custody battles, his relationship with his ex-wife Samantha, and his disagreements with his new girlfriend and label.
Tyrese Gibson acknowledged that his earlier assertion that Will Smith had given him money was false in a recent interview. During a custody dispute in 2017, he had claimed on Instagram that the funds were for his daughter’s legal bills. In light of his subsequent admissions, Tyrese says that his actions were motivated by the drugs he was taking and that his mental state was not optimal at the time.
“As someone who doesn’t use drugs, you put something salty in my system, it’s gonna have the worse adverse effects ever. So, I am online talking bout Will Smith giving me $5 million,” he said while on the Sways Universe podcast.

“I never talked to Will Smith and I still haven’t recovered from the damage that I did to him and his family. They didn’t deserve them phone calls. I still haven’t recovered from announcing that Samantha was pregnant when she wasn’t at the time…Everything that was happening, I was out of my mind.”
The musician appeared to be going through a difficult period last year; on the first anniversary of his mother’s passing, he broke down and disclosed that he had been dropped by his record label, Voltron Recordz. Even though he seemed to be moving on fast after announcing their divorce, this occurred after he hinted at a new song that questioned his wife’s love.
